YES. I still hate him, though. Flay and Rachael Ray are the reason food network is such shit these days, and why everything, even cooking, needs to be all fucking "extreme".

If I ever meet him for some reason, I'll totally kick him in the shins. XD

[broadwaybabe11.livejournal.com]

19. I love Ron. I'm just curious, so Ron haters, why do you hate Ron?

I kind of refuse to believe that this isn't some kind of troll secret posted for the lulz, but in the off chance that it's actually an honest, legitimate secret:

Firstly, most of the people I know who LIKE Twilight are well aware of the level of writing it is. The nicest way I can think to put it is "mediocre", though I could be meaner about it if I wanted, as most people who've read the books probably could. I'm of the opinion that if you truly like a fandom or series of books like this, you should at least be able to acknowledge the weaknesses so that you don't come off like a total twink to other people. Stephenie Meyer, like JK Rowling, has never published a book before this series. What I think is that, while that might mean they are bringing in new, creative ideas -- their writing might not be completely fantastic. It is my personal opinion that JKR's narrative style is much more developed and tolerable than Stephenie Meyer's. However, for what it's worth, I think that Twilight has more... IDK, plot coherency, if that makes sense. As much as I love the subplots and minor character storylines in HP, it certainly confuses the reader from the main plot of the stories, and opens up more questions and plot holes than JKR was able to tie up, in the end.

Anyway, this has kind of moved away from my original point of the comment, which was that if you really love the series, love it WITH its weaknesses rather than just denying that they're there. No writer or series is perfect.

My second point was going to be that no matter how much the seventh book in Harry Potter sucked for a portion of the fans, there is no way to even compare the Twilight books to it. JKR has been more successful than any other writer of our generation, and I find it highly unlikely that anyone else will come anywhere close, anytime soon. Twilight will never "kick HP's ass", nor will any other book series, even by more worthy writers with much better storylines and characterizations. Would that Neil Gaiman or Philip Pullman could be as famous and successful as JKR, but even they aren't going to reach that level. Twilight is no different from any other fandom for anything else -- the fact that you're a part of it won't make it bigger or better than any other fandom. Frankly, the HP fandom is a... fucking massive thing and all other fandoms small in comparison. Whether or not it deserves that is irrelevant, because that's just the way it is. Sry.

And my final point: all fandoms of any large size are generally populated with assholes. Especially fandoms that cater to younger fans. When a fandom gets to a certain size, there will quickly be elitists that emerge from the dark recesses of their caves, and they will scorn all the newer, nooblier fans. And the nooblier fans will write fanfictions of themselves inserted into their fandom which will receive flames and other noobly reviews praising them. And batshit crazy BNFs will emerge to spread their insanity across the internets. And people will make secrets bashing rival fandoms and patting themselves on the back for being so clever and amazing and choosing The Right Fantasy Book Series. The HP fandom vs the Twilight fandom? Who cares, they're both full of self-important assholes who suck the fun out of even being a fan by acting as though it's possible for a person to be unworthy of the enjoyment of a fucking book, and choose to make that point to everyone they feel doesn't ~belong~ in a fandom based around sparkling vampires and their romantic interests. Come on.

35, 77

[o-deanna.livejournal.com]

I'm so late to the party but--

35 - Clearly you are a Twilight elitist and an awful hypocrite. Or a troll. I'm hoping for the third.

77 - Aww, my faith was restored in John Locke when I saw 4x11 :). I'm certainly not obsessed with Jack, Sayid and Sawyer (OK, maybe Sawyer a little bit).

HUME AND FARADAY FTW!!

35 and 80

[penelopeblack.livejournal.com]

35- This is probably a troll secret, but I kind of love you for posting it. I did actually like DH okay, but I enjoy any secret that bashes Twilight haters. :D

80- I agree with this so hard, omg. I am really sensitive when it has anything to do with kitties. ♥

[virgofolkie.livejournal.com]

I read a fanfic on a now-deleted LJ that had both the twins doing ritual!sex with Harry at the same time (Harry was 18+ in the story, fortunately).

I would definitely take on both of them at once; but that's not what you have in mind (LOL)...

15

[abiding.livejournal.com]

LOL OMG I LOVE THAT

*is late to the party*

[wing-of-grey.livejournal.com]

59. You know, I'm strangely comforted by the fact that I am not the only one who was shipping inanimate objects before I even knew what shipping was.

77. Locke = Better than EVERYONE.

[kita0610.livejournal.com]

74- He's only hairy because he's Jewish-

WTF? LMFAO. I can't even. I wanna be annoyed, but the stupid. It burns.

30- Godamn yes. Bruce Willis IS sexy. Who knew?!? (Esp with floppy haired pretty boys.)

Please delete this.

[etherealtsuki.livejournal.com]

Fuck, now how it did this? Can someone delete this.

49 & 75

[edentimes.livejournal.com]

49. I've had similar ideas. o_o

75. You will not be disappointed. I sincerely hope it helps you.

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

49. FUCK YEAH. Suikoden shipping gets so weird (and by weird I mean awesome), but that one's just a given. Lorelai/Killey/Zweig has always been my OT3 (and you're right, Viki must also attend)

51. I'd call it 'subtext canon'... like I bet the writers put it in deliberately knowing the shippers would ship it and in that sense it's canon... but canon canon notsomuch.

But come on. Let me have my bubble.

68. A couple of my drama geek friends did something similar for a lark and I never got over it. I know it'll never happen but... LET ME SHIP IT GODDAMMIT. XD

02, 16, 63

[scarletumbrella.livejournal.com]

02 - PETE! ♥

16 - LMAO! I thoroughly enjoyed this secret. XD

63 - Oh hi, wank.

[seriousfic.livejournal.com]

66. Imma gonna go to hell when I die... (http://seriousfic.livejournal.com/63575.html#cutid1)

47

[ichigo-pinkchan.livejournal.com]

I entirely agree with you. The character dynamic was just fine before Ms. Bobcat came along - I honestly think she's completely unnecessary and unoriginal. I hope something large and rabid eats her.

08, 12, 29, 32, 34, 59, 61, 73, 74, TB!6

[(Anonymous)]

8. I'm the same way for Martha.

12. What fandom is this?

29. So does xkcd, so at least you're in good company.

32. ...Looking at the picture you chose for this secret, I think I might actually have liked the series a lot more if the genders of the main characters had been reversed.

34. There are people who have actually had their eyes opened to accepting other sexualities by RHPS? I would have thought that the over-the-top campiness would drive away people who weren't already okay with homosexuality (...says the girl who first learned about gays from Mercedes Lackey.)

59. Oh my god, Brave Little Toaster secret! I loved that movie so much when I was a little kid!
...And I still cry at that scene, too.

61. And attitudes like yours are part of why I hate him so much and try for the "In Water" ending every time. Too many people feel the same way when stuff like that happens in real life.

73. ...Aww. I don't even particularly like Azula, but this secret made me tear up just a bit. I'm glad that you and your mom are doing better now.

74. Wow. I've seen some pretty reprehensible secrets before, but this pretty much takes the cake. You get a smidgen of respect back for being aware of how heinous it is and feeling ashamed of yourself, but it's still pretty damn pathetic.
Thank you for realizing that you suck and confessing it anonymously here rather than obliviously posting it on your own public journal. I sincerely hope that now that you've realized you've got a problem, you can work through your hinky race issues and get over them.

Too Big 6- Wasn't this already posted a few days ago?

64

[dementedjen.livejournal.com]

What's so confusing about 4chan? It works just like any other forum.

77

[sirens-song.livejournal.com]

I am totally with you on this. I don't really care about the fate of the other characters or even the island mysteries. For me the show is all about watching his incredible journey.

[wickedlady101.livejournal.com]

#76 I ship it with you, but I am even worse cause I just don't ship weasley twincest, I also ship Ouran twincest, and yeah if I ever came across another pairing of hot red headed male twins in fandome I will ship them too.

[snow-angle15.livejournal.com]

Well, I guess because they want to sink the incest paring between Susan and Peter. Which is obviously popular because of the first movie. I found that funny as hell :3
I yelled as my best friend this morning in an English class, after found out she read Twilight. Can of regretting it.

[rosethornli.livejournal.com]

20. Jenny is awesome! YOU ARE NOT ALONE in the love of the doctor's daughter.

77. Locke is awesome! But I like him better before he met Ben and became the "Chosen One" for the island and the others.

SUPER LATE TO THE PARTY, BUT.

[poisontea.livejournal.com]

23. So very late...

... but so very agreed. ♥;;

32. I am sorta meh about Naruto in general and the character in particular, but I think I'd love Naruto if he WERE a girl. Like burning. =D (ALSO GIRL!SASUKE AND BOY!SAKURA DO WANT j-just think of Sakura fanboying over the tsuntsunderedere. SO MUCH WANT.)

35. Uh, maybe there are people out there that just... DON'T LIKE A SERIES, how's that? I don't even know what that series is and I am currently mostly uninterested in Harry Potter, so yanno. Not part of some giant fandom BAAAAAWWWWW here. Also, as you automatically assume that just because someone has a different opinion than you they are an immature butthurt fangirl/boy, my opinion of you has dropped dramatically. (:

51. ... is that canon art for the series? Because if it is, uh, that might explain why most people fans of the pairing think it's canon. o____o;; (If not, it's GORGEOUS fanart.)

59. Brave Little Toaster Secret for the SO MUCH WIN stop making me want to ship it dammit :'D

75. I hope it works for you. Kamina is pretty inspirational... but if you really need help, talk to someone IRL about it- it's a horrible thing to be in a downward spiral, do whatever you can to brighten up your life.

Re: SUPER LATE TO THE PARTY, BUT.

[vontriz.livejournal.com]

51. It's a shop, actually, the "bride" is actually a man in the show (although there IS speculation, as he's so bloody effeminite, but as of now, you can assume he's a guy). It's frightening how well done that picture is. Although I tend to WHOOSH past is when it crops up because it's... it's just so strange...

12

[glamaph0ne.livejournal.com]

Me too.
But I also hate the fact that she "grows up". I wish she wouldn't, she was so much better at the start of the film.
I also hate it when fanfics have her all goody two-shoes all of a sudden and being Karen's doormat.

65

[neko4.livejournal.com]

IAWTS

[misread-moment.livejournal.com]

25- Gah! Someone who feels the same way i do!!! ♥

35- ::Bows before you:: :D

62- before the movie was even over, my friends and I came to the conclusion that everyone wanted in speed's pants xD

62-

[shortypenguin.livejournal.com]

OF COURSE. <33333

boy is fine. How could you not. i'd hit that with the force of god on a period.
